Fauxton shows “This database failed to load” after pod restarts #52

@DB185344

Description

@DB185344

Describe the bug

After restarting a pod, the node fails to join the cluster properly, and we're getting an error on Fauxton, that displays 'this database failed to load' on some databases. when refreshing the browser, a different db comes online and a different db displays 'this database failed to load'. only after running a curl request with 'finish_cluster' the error stops.

Version of Helm and Kubernetes: Helm: 3.5.4, Kubernetes: 1.19

What happened: After restarting a pod, the node fails to join the cluster properly, and only after running:

curl -X POST http://$adminUser:$adminPassword@<couchdb_pod>:5984/_cluster_setup -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"action": "finish_cluster"}'
The pod will join back to the cluster.

What you expected to happen: After restart of the pod, the node automatically joins the cluster.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible): restart 1 pod in the cluster.
